Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1-(2-cyclopropyl-3-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-6-yl)-4-hydroxypyridin-2(1H)-one (150 mg), (5-chlorothiophen-3-yl)methanol (158 mg) and tributylphosphine (322 mg) in THF (15 ml) was added 1,1′-(azodicarbonyl)dipiperidine (401 mg), and the mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 4 h. The reaction mixture was then cooled to room temperature and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was diluted with DCM (100 ml), washed with water and brine successively, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by silica gel column chromatography (MeOH/DCM) to afford the title compound (90 mg) as a white solid.
